I don’t particularly like it, but I think it gets people who like it to try real belgians. Better than crap lager, though.

i like this beer! of course, it was really my first foray into the belgian style and was basically all a body could get in FL for the longest time in that genre....but since then, i’ve tried a few other belgian style white beers (not as many as most people here obviously) but i really enjoy the taste of this beer. not as much as blanche de chambly but more than hoegaarden.

Wasn’t bad, wasn’t good. Very bland version of a white.

Bland, if you’re looking for a belgium-style white, drink a microbrews white.
